The objectives of this supplemental funding is to provide for necessary expenses related to the consequences of disasters, including costs to States, Tribes, and territories. Funds may be used for historic and cultural resource preservation work in the program areas defined by the National Historic Preservation Act (54 USC 3001 et seq.) and that meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation. Capacity, technical assistance, and emergency repairs to historic and archeological resources impacted by disasters, consistent with legislative intent, may be funded. Funding should substantially mitigate disaster caused damage and mitigate future risk.
